ummm...
"Brenda Snipes has held her position since 2003, in which year her predecessor, Miriam Oliphant, was suspended for “ grave neglect, mismanagement and incompetence” and, quite literally, marched out of her office. Alas, Snipes has proven no better at fulfilling her duties than was Oliphant. On Friday, a court in Broward County found that Snipes was guilty of violating both Florida’s public-records laws and the state’s constitution by failing to provide mandatory updates to the public, and it ordered the immediate release of the missing information. As that ruling was coming down, Snipes’s office was laying out more lawsuit bait. According to the Miami Herald, an election worker found bags of “uncounted early ballots” in the Broward County office — ballots whose provenance could not be established. Snipes, meanwhile, was busy mixing together rejected provisional ballots and accepted provisional ballots, processing them all together. She justified her decision to add these provisional ballots to the official tally on the grounds that it would be better to include some illegal votes than to nix the legal ones with which, by her own incompetence, they had been blended.
This year alone, Snipes has been reprimanded by the courts twice: once, in May, for illegally destroying ballots during the 2016 Democratic primary, in violation of both state and federal law; and again, in August, for illegally opening mail-in ballots in secret. How long, we wonder, does it take to establish a pattern?
she'll probably get a promotion and a lifetime achievement award

Hey . . . violating laws didn't influence the outcome of the election . . . it's all good . . . she's doing a really good job. Illegal aliens are Ok . . . they don't influence anything . . . Russian meddling in our elections didn't influence the outcome of our elections . . . not a problem (but Trump needs to be investigated) . . . it's all good . . . move on and shut the ef up.
